    • Bittersweet Moment #236: Snow in Rome

      Bittersweet Moment #236: Snow in Rome
      Jan 14 2026
      The temps are dropping in Rome and all Roman children (and several adults as well!) are praying nightly for that Roman rarity: snow! Will it happen this year? It's anyone's guess but it's certainly not a common occurance. Since Tiffany moved to Rome over two decades ago, it has only snowed a measely three times. But when it snows in Rome it is truly magical! On this mini-episode, Tiffany talks about the major Roman snowstorms of the past half-century, and what it was like to see the Eternal City under a blanket of snow.

      Episode 611: Creating a Literary Life in Florence (with Lauren Mouat)
      Jan 12 2026
      When a writer moves abroad, how do they find a literary community in their new country, especially when that country speaks (and reads) in a different language? They create it themselves of course! This week we sit down with writer, editor, and tour guide Lauren Mouat has created a literary life for herself in Florence and Livorno, from co-founding a literary society to starting a literary magazine, from creating a direct channel from aspiring writers to literary agents to publishing a volume of her own short stories. Listen in and get inspired to create a rich literary community in your own city! Find out more about the Florence Literary Society and their annual Publishing Day initiative. Find the latest issue of the Open Doors Review. Order Lauren's book of short stories here if you're in the US or here if you're in Italy. Email here to book a tour of Florence with Lauren. ------------------------------------- COME TO ROME WITH US: Our third annual Bittersweet Life Roman Adventure is in the books!

    • The Bittersweet Past: The Wild Ride of the Mongolian Rally (with Scott Gurian)

      The Bittersweet Past: The Wild Ride of the Mongolian Rally (with Scott Gurian)
      Jan 9 2026
      The Mongol Rally is a one-of-kind intercontinental car race, the "greatest motoring adventure on the planet" according to the organizers. Participants must drive from London to eastern Russia, across Mongolia, in a small engine car (1000-1200cc) at their own pace and their own peril. Radio producer and friend-of-the-show Scott Gurian survived the 11,000 mile journey in his tiny, 1 liter car and joins us to talk about it. Sign up for the Mongolian Rally here. Check out Scott's podcast Far From Home here. This January, our archive episodes—presented every Friday—will cover the theme of ADVENTURE! Because we could all use a little more adventure in our lives, and January is the perfect time to start thinking about the adventures we want to take during the new year. ***The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years! In order to help newer listeners discover some of our earlier episodes, every Friday we are now airing an episode from our vast archives! Enjoy!*** ------------------------------------- COME TO ROME WITH US: Our third annual Bittersweet Life Roman Adventure is in the books!
